until the enil. They -aitl that in their time they ilo not remember evei -eeing Herron receive a visitor. SI ill Under IMHh Sentence According to law, Herron still is under the jurisdiction of the Middle '•x County court. 'Twenty years ago, after a sensational trial, in which Herron's .-unity was questioned, his execution was stayed “until the further order of tlie court” by the lute Supreme Court Ju-tioe James J. Heigeu. Justice Bergen, who pronounced the sentence of death on Hetron after the jury hail returned a verdict of first degree murder, was positive that the murderer wa-s insane: at the time of the crime. Two reprieves were granted end two -lays were allowed, the lust one virtually making Hetron a life prisoner, although in the eyes of thr law he is still guilty of minder, if sane. Herron was sentenced July 8, 1908, and received at the state prison July 31 to die in September, 1908. The first stay in the rounds of the legal fight was granted Sept. 2, 1908, oy the lute Chancellor Pitney. Cancels Governor's Death Order A new sentence was imposed on Jan. 25, 1909, but the late Governor John W. Fort on the following day granted a reprieve and on the following Feb. 24, a further reprieve extend ing to March 29. Governor Fort after the expiration of the reprieve ordered the preparations for Herron’- electrocution to begin. About an hour and a half after the Governor’s order reached the prison, Justice Bergen issued an order for an inquiry into the mental condition of Herron and on June 2 following directed another stay stopping all proceedings until further older of the court. Justice Bergen’s order was the last action taken in behalf of Herron recorded at the prison. Alien-t- exatnin ed the prisoner, but prison records fail to say whether Herron wa' ever declared officially insane. An effort was made to send him to the Stati-
renllzed. At Valley Forge the dawn of the new nation rose. While Washing was plendin; with congress for food and supplies for bis almost destitute men, Krniillin was ronrltiding the agreement with France that brought recognition to the thirteen states and made possible their union. To the right of the olmpel nltnr, sharing equal honors with the flags of the army and navy are tlie ens’lgns of royal France, vitnesses that In the Memorial chapel the aid given hy our ally across the -eas has not been for-
gotten.
